Russian attacks leave consumers without power in Kyiv and four regions – Ukrenergo
As of the morning of October 30, consumers in Kyiv and four regions were left without electricity due to Russian attacks. Power consumption restrictions of up to 2.5 scheduled outage slots are in effect in parts of Ukraine.
Ukrainian power grid operator Ukrenergo confirmed that Russian assaults have left millions of customers without electricity in Kyiv and four additional regions. This occurred yesterday and into the night, compounded by prior attacks on energy infrastructure. Numerous regions are still without power this morning, according to the declaration.
Repair efforts are underway where security conditions permit, but power consumption restrictions for industrial users and hourly power outages affecting up to 2.5 groups are set to continue until the end of the day in some areas due to the aftermath of the Russian strikes. As of 09:30 on Friday, electricity consumption dropped by 6.5% compared to the previous day, a reflection of the impact of the power outages and damage to energy facilities.
Ukrenergo advised consumers to limit the use of high-power electrical appliances between 16:00 and 22:00. The Ministry of Energy reported emergency power cuts in the Dnipropetrovsk region due to equipment damaged by Russian attacks, with potential for additional emergency outages in specific regions if the power system's situation worsens.
